another hot day

and yet more humping water containers around, but the forecast gives rain for the weekend and next week, so we are trying to get everything planted now, catch up, and hope the poor dried up plants last until the rain comes.

So the first wigwams for climbing beans is up, the last of the dwarf French beans planted, and lots of elderflowers harvested! – we are now drinking elderflower cordial, and another batch is on it’s way.

It’s a regular brewery under our kitchen table; the space is filling up with bottles of elderflower champagne, and the barrel of real ale bubbles away, occasionally emitting a wet-sounding fart noise so that I have to hastily point out the homebrew to visitors!
